As a young student, I was trained by Professor Mark Dickerson, a psychologist with expertise in gambling addiction. Ever since, I have always had an interest in public health, law and addiction. It has been fascinating to catch up with Quentin Beresford's new book from NewSouth, Hooked: Inside the Murky World of Australia's Gambling Industry.

newsouthbooks.com.au/books/hoo

Amongst other things, the book provides a comparative analysis about legal and regulatory responses to addictive products: 'Over the years, Australian governments have introduced some of the strictest anti-smoking measures anywhere in the world. There is a total ban on any messaging that aims to persuade people to smoke. This is complemented by plain packaging laws, the banning of logos and branding on packets of cigarettes, and the introduction of graphic health warnings. By a large margin, community opinion favoured a similar approach to gambling advertising and promotion.' The book explores the failures of Australian Governments to adequately respond to the public health threats of gambling.

大學第一篇論文應該是台灣萬年國會,畢業論文是歐盟的存續性

反正那會狀態很不好,我也是通宵達旦寫。記得我總結寫得很模糊,大概是歐盟建基在很脆弱的基礎上,但要倒也不是這麼容易的事情

教授最後讓我過也是有點好人

現在可以回頭更正,我可能會寫,歐盟應該是大到不能倒

Je suis un homme. Blanc. Cisgenre. Avec un très bon diplôme. Une très bonne situation. Dans un des endroits les plus protégés, les plus démocratiques. Bref, je serai parmi les tout derniers à souffrir des effets combinés de la politique et de la technologie.

Et j’ai peur.

Alors ne venez pas dire que vous n’étiez pas prévenus…

오랫동안 GrafanaPrometheus 의 조합으로 서버 모니터링을 해왔는데, (거기에 Uptime Kuma 까지)

뭔가 바꿔볼 마음이 들어서, 올해 하게 되는 프로젝트에는 SigNozxyOps 를 적용해볼까 싶어서 살펴보고 있다. (바쁘거나 우선순위에서 밀리면 못하겠지만)

Please boost!

TurtleIsland.social is a small instance. What are we supposed to do, apologize for being survivors of history's largest genocide?

No, this is on the dominant culture to fix. The dominant culture is the gatekeeper and needs to fix this for ALL non-white cultures.

It's time to make Mastodon friendly to non-white cultures and we need to start at the top.

[단독] 금지 성분 든 '국민치약' 2080, 느림보 회수 왜?…애경산업, 회수계획서 늑장 제출 논란 news.jtbc.co.kr/article/NB12... "약사법상 '의약품 등의 안전에 관한 규칙'에 따르면 의약품 등에 안전성·유효성에 문제가 있음을 인지한 날부터 5일 이내에 관할 지방식약청에 회수계획서를 제출해야 합니다. 하지만 당시 애경산업은 구두보고만 했을 뿐 회수계획서는 제출하지 않았던 것으로 확인됐습니다. 회수계획서를 제출한 건 이달 5일로 검사를 시작한 지난달 15일로부터 20일 이상 지난 뒤였습니다."

Think it's time for a #AskFedi knowledge share...

Can people name some decent non-US #PC and #laptop manufacturers?
Extra points if they try not to use US components as well (i.e. Intel)

Obviously we have @tuxedocomputersTUXEDO , @starlabssystems and @slimbookSLIMBOOK (Official) to start
And for the sake of mentioning, we have Fujitsu, Minisforum as moderately popular off the shelf brands.

But does anyone have any other to add to the list?

Sorry, US friends :blobcathuggiessad:

Pictured is a 430 million-year-old Silurian Dalmanites caudatus from England. This 2.5-in- (6.4-cm-) long specimen was preserved in rock that, when carefully opened, revealed positive and negative splits! Notice that this trilobite is slightly disarticulated? A small brachiopod shell became wedged between the trilobite's head and body, causing them to separate.

Image Description
On the left is the positive split: A brown trilobite fossil is protruding from the surface of a beige stone. The trilobite has an oval-shaped body with a ribbed carapace; its head is smooth and rounded; its hind-end has a sharp point. On the right is the negative split. An indentation of the trilobite fossil can be seen in the stone; there's also a sea shell on the upper-half of the stone.
